Labor Troubles and Their Result.

Tie labor strikes in the United States
for the first two months of 1887 num-
bered l66, involving SO, 800 employees,
as against 24 strikes and 81. 900 employ
es for the same period of 1856. OF this
number q strikes, in which 5000 per-
sons were engaged, were still pending
and unsettled at the close of February.
Forty-three strikes, including %, 523
strikers, were successfulO or We're settled
by compromise, indicating partial sue
cess. NInety-siX strikes, in which 80, =
III hands ere engaged, were absolute
failures. Less than 80 per cent, of the
strikes have proved Succt Sstui in any
degree aud il those that were nom nal
" successful it is ext-em' ly doubtful
Whetner the advance secured will max e
good the absolute loss sustained while
the strikers Were idle.
Besides the $4,000 strikers $4,000
workers who did not strike were
thrown out of employment through
the scarcity of coal or raw materials
consequent upon the strike. The loss
of wages to the strikers aud those
whose idleness was solely due to the
strikes was between three and four
millions of dollars. When it is under
stood that less than thirty per cent. of
the strikes were successful it is hard to
see where any proper return is to be
realized as an offset to this immense
loss, This estimate does not include
the loss to the general business of the
country, which must have been fully
as great as the loss to the workingmen.
There is one feature of this striking
business which is lost sight of by the
timid souls who think the unusual
large number of strikes at present pro-
tend general disaster to the country.
This is that the strikers numbered less
than one hundred thousand out of near
Nv twenty millions of workers in the
country. The public heard a great
deal about the hundred thousand strik-
ers and very little about the nineteen
million niue hundred thousand tn at
kept quietly at their work. The hum
dred thousand made more noise than
the nearly two hundred times their
number who continued at work. But
this comparison shows that the pros
perity of the country is stable and that
the dissa tisfied portion OF the working
population forms but a very small per-
centage of its vast army of industrial
toiiers. There is great loss to both
strikers and employers in the limit d
circles TO which these labor suspensions
extend, but the great mass of the work.
ing people show by their continued in
dustry that they are fully aware of the
fact that it pays better to be busy at
the wages they can get than to be idle
even a small part of the time in tue
delusive hope OF getting large ip-
crease.-Ihilddelphfg Times,

The PrOhlbitOry Amendment.


1t may be promised that the writer
has been for more than fifty years iden-
titled with the Total Abstinence Cause,
and yet because he refuses to follow
every woman and wagon that comes
along, he is deemed by the Jehus to be
"crank." So mote it be.
In regard to the whole Prohibitory
Amendment muddle, it is not safe for
a total abstinence man to take stock in
it, be- ause it covers too much ground.
| 1t is conceded that the use of alcohol
in the arts and sciences is right, and,
so long as that is admitted, laws against
its use can be evaded.
| 1t is cOnced. that it is not the man.
ufacture or the sale of it, but the drink
ing OF it, that does the mischief.
Now, let the Legislature pass law
making drunkenness a misde meanor
punishable at the whipping post, and
when a drunken man does mischief,
let the man who sold the liquor be
made accessory before the fact. This
the Legislature can do without Pro-
hibitory amendment, and it will strike
at the evil complained of.
By urging this course, the public can
distinguish between the zeal that aims
to suppress intemperance and that
which prop oses to establish q new po-
litical party, based, nominally, on that
issue.
1t will be found impossible to sue
cessfully grapple with this issue so long
as the United States Government
draws the bulk of its revenue from a
tax on distilled and malt liquors. Pay
the National Debt, and then distilled
and malt liquors can be placed on the
free list, and thus the seeming protec.
ton of the government be withdrawn
from the traffic. But there is princi
E pie in human 'ducatiOn that is ignored
in this whole scheme.
1t proposes to putt possible, entirely
out OF mems reach whatever it is mo-
I right for them to have.
Now, the true idea is to have al
things remain in their proper places
and compel men to avoid their improp
er use.
y But if the amendment is submitted
it will be about eighte, n months befOr
: it will be voted on, and it will be hare
> to tell what change may take place il
public sentiment in that time. Onl,
let the subject be fairly kept before tn
y people, who can always be trusted t
e eventually protect their own interests
IS But there is one phase of the matte
t that must not be overlooked. We ar
o on the turn of times in the closing day
u of a cycie.>H itherto public issues hav
" been political or financial, but til
II coming issues will be mainly mora
IS and social. There is new force con-
ing to the front. Women are asserting
e as never heretofore, their right to b
y heard.
" peasants, whose new found strength ha
e broke
II From manly necks the ignoble yoke,
= And forged their letters into swords,
On equal terms to fight their lords"
- Without admitting that all the pas
has been failure, still, let them come
The world needs great deal of good
and has need of every worker.
There are many reasons why n
state should adopt Prohibition,
Amendment, and ample time will b
given for their presentation.
